21. When you are confident that the canister assembly is properly positioned, install three #6 X 1” Drywall
Screws (Y) to temporarily hold the canister in place as the grout cures. See Photo 19.
22. Using a small scoop, funnel or other method, add wet grout around the canister assembly until it reaches
approximately 4" below the finished wood floor. Take care to agitate the grout as it is installed to allow it
to fill-in 360° around the canister.
Make sure not to overfill or to leave excess wet grout on or around
the top of the Canister Cover (M) on the canister assembly. See Photo 20.
23. Remove the tarp and remove any excess grout or other debris from the surrounding floor and the exposed
portion of the canister assembly. See Photo 21.
24. Allow the grout to cure at least 3 days prior to proceeding with the final installation of the telescoping
volleyball tube assembly and net setup. Early removal may cause system failure.
25. When grout is cured, remove the
#6 X 1” Drywall Screws (Y) and the three 1/4” X 2” Hex Bolts (F).
Remove the Steering Wheel Installation Plate (J), Gray and/or Black Plastic Standoffs (K and L) and
the Canister Cover (M) from the canister assembly exposing the inside diameter of the canister.
26. Wipe the inside of the canister to remove all debris. Applying a little
LPS 1 Greaseless Lubricant (U) to
the inside of the canister will help with installation.
27. Carefully slide the telescoping pole assembly into the canister being careful not to let it free fall.
See Photo 22.
28. Rotate the pole assembly in the canister until the groove on the side of the pole assembly lines up between
the two threaded holes that are used to mount the retainer assembly to the top flange of the canister. Use
the 2 hex bolts to bolt the retainer assembly securely to the canister flange with the ball nose set screw in
the slot in the tube assembly. See Photos 23, 24 and Figure 1.
29. Reinstall the
VB23-CV Brass Floor Plate (E) using the brass screws provided. The hinged portion of the
VB23-CV Brass Floor Plate (E) should open away from the court and net. Make sure top of the plate is
flush with the finished floor and that the hinged cover completely closes.
30. With the telescoping pole securely in place and the VB23-CV Brass Floor Plate (E) reinstalled, lift the
telescoping pole assembly by grasping the top rope guide finger slots. See Photo 25.
31. The
Telescoping Pole (A) has 5 movable sections. Raise and lock each one individually by lifting
approximately 20" until the spring pin engages into the hole in the corresponding outer section. The
largest diameter section will need to be lifted approximately 20” then rotated 10° clockwise to lock into
place. See Photos 26, 27, 28, and Figure 1.
32. The
top pole section can be adjusted in ½" increments by pressing in the spring pin that allows the top
tube section to telescope, locking into any of the slots provided when the spring pin is released. Note that
Men's "M", Women's "W" and Junior "J" heights are clearly marked on the upper pole for easy height
adjustment once the system height has been fine tuned. See Photo 31.
33. The first time the net system is set up, it will be necessary to fine tune the net height to adjust for any
minor differences in the installation depth in relationship to the finished floor or other variables. The top
rope guide can be adjusted in 1/16" increments by loosening the set screw and rotating the rope guide
180°. The slot on the top of the rope guide must always be in line with the court. Loosen the set screw so
that you can fine tune and retighten later in the instructions. See Photos 29 and 30..
